Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



A previous thread explained how to modify common .BIB files to remove
desktop shortcuts. I'm more interested a modification that doesn't
affect every single platform. Is there a way to remove an entry from a
platform-level .BIB file in a using a project-level .BIB file or
through some other means?

Secifically, I need to remove

...\cesysgen\oak\files\directx.bib(159): ceplayer.lnk
$(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\ceplayer.lnk NK SH
...\cesysgen\oak\files\ie.bib(110): iesample.lnk
$(_FLATRELEASEDIR)\iesample.lnk NK SH

from there respective files, and also remove the associated .DAT file
entries

...\cesysgen\oak\files\directx.dat(16):Directory("\Windows\LOC_DESKTOP_DIR"):-File("Media
Player.lnk", "\Windows\ceplayer.lnk")
...\cesysgen\oak\files\directx.dat(17):Directory("\Windows\LOC_PROGRAMS_DIR"):-File("Media
Player.lnk", "\Windows\ceplayer.lnk")

in my Windows CE 5.0 x86 platform.
